Woke up from my nap with a throbbing wrist out of nowhere. All I managed to do was feed Avalanche and message Tyler about hiking tomorrow and go back to bed. It hurts so much, I don’t know why. I don’t remember anything happening.

I wasn’t able to give avalanche any playtime today - I had less than 4 hrs of sleep, then counseling and taking Josh to the airport, then work. I had to close up the apartment against the heat so she didn’t have her usual open windows to watch birds and squirrels. I crashed when I got home. Despite not playing with her at all today, she’s curled up between my legs. She loves me anyway. So grateful.

Hello investigators, criminal masterminds, and citizen detectives,

It's been a fortnight since you last heard from me. I have some great news.

The collection will be opening on Friday 29 August at 11:59pm EDT. [ In your timezone + Countdown. ]

All of the cases that were needed to be completed in order for us to open are in. Please take this time to review your assignment and ensure that you've dotted your i's and crossed your t's and added any tags that you've left off so others can find your work within the collection and your fandom tags.

If you're still jonesing to get your hands dirty with investigations, may I invite you to have a look at our pinch hitter's treats and have a look around the AO3 app to see if there's anyone else you'd like to create a gift for. Treats do not have to be 3,000 words minimum or its equivalent and they do not have to have a beginning/middle/end of a case being fully solved.

If you have any questions, please email me at gumshoeagency@gmail.com.

Thank you again to our wonderful pinch hitters for working hard to help us get all our cases solved! (If you'd like to put yourself up for a treat, please do head on over to the post!)

See you next week! 🩷

What are you working on? What have you finished? What do you need encouragement on?

Are there any cool events or challenges happening that you want to hype?

What do you just want to talk about?

Can anyone recommend a contractor in the greater Camberville area who's good at rodent exclusion? As in, identifying where and how they're getting in, then systematically blocking those entrances so the rodents *stop* getting in.

This is for a 10-residential-unit building, brick and cement block outside, drywall inside. So someone who can handle a project larger than a single-family home. (It's a condo complex; the condo committee does not have any existing connections for that kind of work.)
